Healthwatch Hartlepool/Hartlepool Carers Health Care Experience Consultation

Report - 1 May 2018

Read our report into the consultation we conducted with carers about health and social care issues that have an impact on their wellbeing.

In December 2017 the Healthwatch Hartlepool met with representatives of Hartlepool Carers to discuss a range of health and social care related issues which impact upon the wellbeing of carers and the people they care for.

Discussions touched upon a wide range of issues but it soon became apparent that there was a need to engage directly with carers to obtain first hand experiences of the effectiveness of local health services.

Discharge Lounge Report

Healthwatch Hartlepool recognises that many people in Hartlepool are significantly affected by health inequalities and high levels of ill-health. The delivery of supportive and appropriate hospital discharge services in the town are vital and play a major part in ensuring patients experience and subsequent recouperation are maximised.
On completion of our Hospital Discharge report in March 2023 various recommendations were made and Healthwatch Hartlepool undertook to re-visit the service early in 2024 to speak to patients and assess how the service has developed over the past year.
